Sensors and gauges feed their data into central control rooms where operator personnel monitor #pipelines 24/7.

#Pipeline operators use advanced detection technology and analytics to monitor pipelines.

#Pipeline operators are developing and deploying advanced technologies that can "smell" trace amounts of hydrocarbons in the soil, "see" their chemical signature in the air or hear tiny acoustic vibrations produced by a hole in the pipe.

#Pipeline operators use computer algorithms to account for changes in temperature, terrain or distance from a pump station, helping detect issues before they become a problem.

#Pipeline operators can remotely stop pumps and close isolation valves if they detect a potential problem.

#Pipeline operators can quickly shut down a pipeline if monitoring technology indicates a potential leak.

From planes to helicopters to drones, #pipeline operators monitor from above to ensure pipelines are operating safely.

Unmanned drones, special cameras, and even satellites can all help ensure #pipelines are operating safely.

Drones are changing the game! They provide aerial surveillance for inspections, ensuring #pipelines deliver fuel safely and efficiently.

Smart sensors are revolutionizing monitoring! Real-time data on pressure, temperature, and flow can detect issues before they become major problems. #PipelineSafety

#Pipelines are equipped with sensors and gauges along their route. Sensors can detect a pressure drop, and flow gauges monitor product passing through the pipeline, ensuring everything remains inside the pipe.

How do #pipeline operators know if a pipeline might have a leak? 24/7 monitoring with cutting-edge technology and regular patrols along the pipeline route. #PipelineSafety 

What happens when #pipeline operators detect a leak? Pipeline operators will remotely stop pumps and close isolation valves from their central control centers. #PipelineSafety 

Preventative maintenance, proactive inspections, and cutting-edge technology are just a few ways pipeline operators ensure 99.999% of products delivered by #pipeline reach you safely. #PipelineSafety 

With miles of #pipeline to monitor and terabytes of data to analyze, we rely on high-tech innovation and a specially trained workforce to keep our pipes safe.  

How do we keep #pipelines safe? Tools like smart pigs have the same technology doctors use for ultrasounds, allowing us to find issues in the pipes before they become problems. 

#Pipeline inspection tools travel inside the pipe looking for areas that need maintenance. 

Smart pigs use technology similar to an ultrasound or MRI found at a doctor’s office. #PipelineSafety 

Sophisticated digital analytics allow operators to review inspection results and predict when a pipe needs maintenance. #PipelineSafety 

#Pipeline operators are developing new data analysis techniques with machine learning and artificial intelligence.
